AIA Dallas Tour of Homes Sponsorship Kick-off

3 May 2017

Support the Chapter; Build Your Business!

Our 12th year of the AIA Dallas Tour of Homes is underway, and the submitted homes continue to impress! This past week, we completed our home selection process. It is always exciting to be a part of the Home Selection Committee, which tours each home and curates the tour. Our next phase in preparing for the tour is securing partnerships with our sponsors, to ensure that they receive a full tour season of benefits!

The Home Tour Sponsorship Committee, led by Brooke Kingery and Danielle Anderson, understand the importance of sponsorship for all of us here at the AIA and work tirelessly to ensure that we meet or exceed our annual goals for the benefit of the Chapter. We feel that the focus of sponsorship should be on developing long lasting, symbiotic relationships with the companies and firms who partner with us. Previous sponsors continue to return year after year at the same levels or greater because of our approach, and the high caliber of our homes and the architects who design them. We are the only city-wide, exclusively architect-designed home tour in Dallas; with attendance over 2,500 and growing. Through the Tour of Homes, we have established strong relationships with our media sponsor, Modern Luxury, and are able to utilize their vast marketing outreach capabilities. Our printed and online materials reach over half a million community members, architects, allied professionals, business leaders, public officials, cultural groups, media, and art and architecture enthusiasts.

Beginning this month, our Sponsorship Committee will be reaching out to building product vendors, residential suppliers, and architectural and engineering consultants that are featured in homes on the 2018 tour. We have reserved sponsorship positions available for local community businesses that are directly associated with the homes. If you would like to be a part of promoting great architecture, you can contact us today at aiadallastourofhomes@gmail.com. Speaking from my personal experience as a five-year sponsor with Grand Openings, Inc., I know your company will benefit from the boost in business, as ours consistently has. Sponsoring the AIA Dallas Tour of Homes is well worth the investment!
